Britain did brexit and a bunch of other countries elected right wing nut jobs in response to globalization, not just the us

Ah yes, the nuanced thinking of a 5 year old - everything is black and white and everyone who doesn’t agree w me 100% is evil

You’re wrong about the state of the usa, but right about how Americans are coping - by pretending its not happening. It’s pretty similar to how we all cope with climate change

This has the same energy as someone who says they want to drive a car less because it has seatbelts installed.

Like fine - its a useful tool that might prevent you being scammed which just displays information you can easily ignore- better run away.

Its the same with drawing.

Its funny how no one gets confused about lawyers having to practice law, etc. We need better PR.

And yet everyone I know who has used it pre-2010s ish says ‘sequel’

This one fits me best

New one I just became aware of:

How does everyone say SQL?

Yeah the quality of my Healthcare is decreasing

I’m not on twitter and never was, but I’m not silly enough to think billionaires don’t shape my world in a million fucking ways with their unilateral decisions. Elon here has a HUGE one recently in deciding to disable starlink during a Ukraine offensive.

Trying to assist his rich buddies with fucking with the union is a lower tier crime but still its fuckery that affects a lot of people.

Then we’ve got other rich asshats selling state secrets for money.

Billionaires are a liability and everyone needs to realize it.

Somewhere an Elon fanboy is explaining why this is peak free speech

They don’t care about the quality of television. Writing a story that goes on and on and offers the possibility of several spinoffs is the equivalent of micro-transactions in video games : they make more money that way.

Capitalism only maximizes money, it doesn’t maximize quality. It eats quality to make more money.

Yup, incentives at publicly traded companies are way out of whack and its killing us all slowly

hmm, I have watch history off. Is that why it keeps suggesting him so much? Im getting the ‘defaults’?

What Im realizing is that they still win even if the product gets worse. They don’t care about the product. They care about the short term gains that come from fucking around with their bottom line expenses and then presenting that to shareholders as value gain.

Modern day capitalism rewards nothing of value.

because conservatives believe everyone thinks like them and are just scared to admit it

just need to preserve this line because its so spot on

I have been telling youtube im not interested in Joe Rogan for years. It still gives me joe rogan youtube shorts

Feels good to be reading this somewhere other than reddit

Other countries seemed to have some common sense when it comes to capitalism in that they largely don’t allow capitalist incentives to entirely consume areas of public good, such as healthcare / education / and yes even government services such as tax collection.

The USA kind of forgot during the cold war that crony capitalism is a thing and the incentive to make the most money possible isn’t compatible with providing public goods.
